as well as acres, the decision to switch to MBR is based on how much stock you have. i normally always fully convert to mbr b/c i like to look at it retrospectively to decide if it was a good decision or not.
The times that i decided switching to full mbr was most suitable, i had over 14k acres and 4b+ stockpiled(including bushels). always switch to full mbr by 6am on last day and buy out priv all day. i think a slightly higher stockpile would have been better because i still had to resell in last hour to push another mil NW.
problem with more stockpile is i'd need more land as well. if i could grab every few mins like jj(without cheating ofc) i'd be set... but alas i can't.
Getting as many built labs as possible before turn 700 or so is key to getting a large stockpile with ttr. also having 3 research allies who actually tech, but then sometimes they're the ones undercutting u in price b/c u typicslly have same tech.
